Map of planned potential areas with public alcohol ban in Cologne
In 2016
a ban for public alcohol consumption was discussed in Cologne.
This would have assumably been the resulting ban zones:

Context
Therefor I created a Geo-Visualization "Alkoholverbotszone" of the zones which would have been affected by an alcohol ban around schools and children’s daycare facilities (Kindergartens) in Cologne. The map was created in context of the political discussion in Cologne if public alcohol consumption should be banned 100 meter around schools and kindergartens. The law was finally rejected because it would have affected large parts of the city-center (like seen on the Map). It would have been a total ban of public alcohol consumption or very hard and complex to enforce.
